COMMEMORATING THE CHINA RELIEF EXPEDITION. 

THE Memorial Tablets to commemorate the services of the soldiers, sailors and marines of 
the China Relief Expedition of 1900 are now being manufactured at the Rock Island 
Arsenal. These tablets are to be cast in bronze, with simple borders, and six of them 
are to be placed on the inside of the wall surrounding the quarters of the Legation Guard on 
the grounds of the American Legation in Peking. One tablet is to be erected at Tien Tsin, 
China, to mark the spot where Col. E. H. Liscum, Ninth Infantry, was killed while command- 
ing officer of the American forces in the Battle at Tien Tsin, July, 13, 1900. 
The following correspondence is of interest: 

Washington, D.C, January 9, 1905. 
Lieut. -Gen. A. R. Chaffee, United States Army, 

President Military Order of the Dragon. 
My dear General: 

Referring to the remarks made by yourself. Admiral Remey and others, at the recent banquet 
of the Military Order of the Dragon, relative to the desirability of placing simple commemorative 
tablets on the inner walls of the American Legation compound at Peking, China, I beg to state 
that in May last, while passing from General Kuroki's Japanese Army to the Russian Army at 
NewChwang, I spent, en route, several days at Tien Tsin *, visiting the battle-field where Colonel 
Liscum fell), and at Peking where I visited the restored Chien Men (Gate), where Captain 
Reilly was killed, just east of the grounds of the American Legation, so gallantly defended by 
the U. S. Marines, and now occupied by a company of the Ninth Infantry, in their fine new 
quarters, erected on the Legation grounds. I also visited your old headquarters in the Temple 
of Agriciilture, where I had the honor of serving as a member of your staff in 1900. The camping 
places occupied by the foreign troops in Peking in 1900 have largely been restored to their 
original uses, and the foreign governments have apparently expended on their new legation 
buildings, monuments and memorials, all of the money received by them as indemnities, with 
the result that the foreign settlement at Peking, occupied by the foreign legations and their 
guards, has been greatly improved and has become qmte Europeanized. 

Momoments and tablets have been erected by the European nations and by Japan to their 
soldiers of the relief column, a noticeably fine one being that to the German troops, who did not 
arrive till after the campaign was over. So the one noticeable fact is the omission of any me- 
morial or tablet to commemorate the services of the American soldiers of the Relief Expedition 
or any one of the American dead, Liscum and Reilly, who were the officers highest in rank killed 
at Tien Tsin and Pekin respectively. In Tien Tsin the battle-field occupied by the Ninth In- 
fantry and American marines is now in a concession granted to the Japanese Government by 
China, and the one-time swamp or lagoon in which our soldiers fought and fell has been filled 
up and laid out like the streets of a modem city. Within perhaps two hundred yards of the 
place marked by the officers of the Ninth Infantry as the spot where Liscum fell is a beautiful 
cavalry memorial, erected by the Japanese at considerable cost, in a cavalry barrack, to mark 
the site occupied by their troops. Within a very short time, owing to the growth of the Japa- 
nese settlement in Tien Tsin, the spot marked by the Ninth Infantry will be built over by the 
rapidly growing houses of the Japanese concession. 

When in Tien Tsin I visited the Japanese consul, and have every reason to believe that the 
Japanese authorities will gladly allow the erection of a simple marker in an oval made at the 
intersection of two of their streets, so that the Liscum marker could be preserved in it and be 
accessible to the many Americans visiting Tien Tsin. 

Many members of your old command in China have expressed a desire to have tablets 
inserted in the inner walls of our legation compound, containing a list of the officers and men 
killed in the campaign for the relief of Peking; a separate tablet, with the names of the Marine 
guard — officers and men — who so gallantly defended the Legation; a tablet to Captain McCalla. 
and his sailors and marines who participated in the naval attempt to relieve Peking, under 
Admiral Seymour; and, perhaps, a tablet with the names of the officers — some 200 in number — 
of the relief column operating in north China under yoiir command. 

Very truly yours, 

(Signed) Webb C. Hayes. 

ist Endorsement, January 9, 1905. 

Some suitable action should be taken to perpetuate upon the ground of our Legation at 
Peking the presence of our troops in the Relief Expedition, also the presence of the troops at 
the battle at Tien Tsin, July 13, 1900. 

Probably $5,000 would supply and place tablets as suggested. 

(Signed) Chaffee, 

Chief of StaflF. 

White House, 
My dear Mr. Secretary: Washington, January 10,1905. 

I am directed by the President to send you the enclosed letter from C6\. Webb C. Hayes to 
General Chaffee, and to invite your attention to the endorsement thereon. The President 
wishes to know if anything can be done along the lines indicated, and asks that you see Colonel 
Hayes in regard to the matter. 

Very truly yours, 
Hon. John Hay, (Signed) Wm. Loeb, Jr., 

Secretary of State. Secretary to the President. 

The Department of State had no funds available for the purpose, but the Congress, in the 
annual appropriation for sundry civil expenses of the Government, appropriated $9,500 " to 
mark the places where the American soldiers fell and were temporarily interred in Cuba and 
China."

THE CHINA RELIEF EXPEDITION, 
A, D. J900, 

THE Government of the United States of America has placed these tablets to commemorate 
the service of the soldiers, sailors and marines of the China Relief Expedition of igoo, 
who rescued their countrymen in the beleagured legations in the Tartar city of Peking. 

May 26th. The envoys accredited to the Chinese Government applied to their governments 
for guards for the protection of the legations in Peking. 

May 29th. American sailors and marines, under command of Capt. B. H. McCalla, U. S. N., 
landed at Taku, China, and proceeded to Tientsin. 

May 31st. Guards for the legations at Peking, consisting of 350 sailors and marines from 
American, British, French, Italian, Japanese and Russian warships, arrived at Peking, Of this 
force fifty were officers and men of the United States Marine Corps and five were United States 
seamen under command of Capt. J. T. Myers, U. S. M. C, who took station as guard for the 
American legation. This detachment of Americans participated in the defense of all of the 
legations from Jvrne 20th until the relief colvimn arrived on August 14th and held the Tartar wall 
between the Chien Gate and the canal, and thus saved the legations. Casualties, six killed and 
ten wounded. 

June loth. An expeditionary force commanded by Vice-Admiral E. H. Seymour, R. N., 
consisting of over 2000 sailors and marines, the American contingent of about 100 men being 
under the command of Capt. B. H. McCalla, U. S. N., left Tientsin for Peking. After numerous 
engagements with Boxers and Chinese troops, both during the advance, which reached Lang- 
fang, and the retirement, the command returned to Tientsin on the 26th, American loss, four 
killed and twenty-five wounded. 

July 13th. The combined forces of which about 900 were Americans (Ninth Infantry and 
marines), attacked the walled city of Tientsin, which was entered and occupied on July 14th. 
The American casualties included the commander of the American forces. Col. E. H. Liscum, 
Ninth Infantry, and Capt. A. R. Davis, of the U. S. Marines. 

August 4th. The combined forces of about 16,000 men, of which over 2000 were Americans 
(Ninth Infantry, Fotirteenth Infantry, Troop M Sixth Cavalry, Light Battery F, Fifth Artillery 
U. S. Marines), under command of Maj.-Gen. Adna R. Chaffee, left Tientsin for the relief of the 
legations in Peking. 

Atigust sth. Battle of Peit-tsang. 

Axigust 6th. Battle of Yang-tsun; American casualties nine killed and sixty-four wounded. 

August 14th. The American troops fought their way through the Chinese city of Peking 
and entered the Tartar city through the sluice gate. The Fourteenth United States Infantry 
was the first to scale the wall of the Tartar city. 

August I sth. The American troops attacked and carried in succession all the gates leading 
to the Forbidden City from the Chien Gate, and established guards to hold them. Capt. H. J. 
Reilly, Fifth Artillery, killed. 

August i6th. The city of Peking was divided for police and administrative ptirposes into 
four sections under the American, British, Japanese and Russian commanders, and the per- 
manent camp of the American troops was established in the Temple of Agriculture. 

August 19th. Expeditionary forces, of which 400 were Americans (Sixth Cavalry) under 
command of Lieut.-Col. T. J. Wint, Sixth Cavalry, defeated several thousand Boxers six miles 
southwest of Tientsin. 

During August and September, 1900, the American troops sent out minor expeditions in the 
vicinity of Peking. They retained administrative control of nearly one-fourth of Peking till 
May, 1901, by which time aU American troops, except one company, as legation guard, had left 
China. 

The relief of the foreign legations in Peking, for which the China Relief Expedition was or- 
ganized, having been accomplished, a formal final review of the American troops in Peking was 
held on October ist by Major-General Chaffee, in honor of the Honorable E. H. Conger, Minister 
of the United States of America; and, to perpetuate the memories of the campaign, the officers 
of the expedition organized The Military Order of the Dragon.

This volume has been prepared as a souvenir for the ^lembers 
of the Order. 

The MiHtary Order of the Dragon was organized to perpetuate 
the memories of The China Rehef Expedition of 1900. This 
expedition was organized for the reHef of the foreign legations 
in Peking, and the following is a resume of the different cam- 
paigns : 

^lay 26th. The envoys accredited to the Chinese Government applied 
to their governments for guards for the protection of the legations in 
Peking. 

May 29th. American sailors and marines, under command of Capt. 
B. H. ]\IcCalla, U. S. N., landed at Taku, China, and proceeded to 
Tientsin. 

May 31st. Guards for the legations at Peking, consisting of 350 sailors 
and marines from American, British, French, Italian, Japanese and Rus- 
sian warships, arrived at Peking. Of this force fifty were officers and 
men of the United States ^Marine Corps and five were United States sea- 
men under command of Capt. J. T. Myers, U. S. M. C, who took station 
as guard for the American legation. This detachment of Americans par- 
ticipated in the defense of all of the legations from June 20th until the 
relief column arrived on August 14th and held the Tartar wall between 
the Chien Gate and the canal, and thus saved the legations. Casualties, 
six killed and ten wounded. 

June 10th. An expeditionary force commanded by Vice-Admiral E. H. 
Seymour, R. N., consisting of over 2,000 sailors and marines, the American 
contingent of about 100 men l)eing under the command of Capt. B. H. McCalla, 
U. S. N., left Tien-Tsin for Peking. .A.fter numerous engagements with 
Boxers and Chinese troops, both during the advance, which reached Lang- 
fang, and the retirement, the command returned to Tien-Tsin on the 26th. 
American loss, four killed and twenty-five wounded. 

July 13th. The combined forces, of which about 90^3 were Americans 
(Ninth Infantry and marines), attacked ihe walled city of Tien-Tsin, which 
was entered and occupied on July 14th. The American casualties in- 
cluded the commander of the American forces. Col. E. H. Liscum, Ninth 
Infantry, and Capt. A. R. Davis, of the U. S. Marines. 

August 4th. The combined forces of about 16,000 men, of which over 
2,000 were Americans (Ninth Infantry, Fourteenth Infantry, Troop M 



Sixth Cavalry, Light Battery F, Fifth Artillery, U. S. Marines), under 
command of ]\Iaj-Gen. Adna R. Chaffee, left Tien-Tsin for the relief of 
the legations in Peking. 

August 5th. Battle of Peit-tsang. 

August 6th. Battle of Yang-tsun ; American casualties nine killed and 
sixty-four wounded. 

August 14th. The American troops fought their way through the 
Chinese city of Peking and entered the Tartar city through the sluice 
gate. The Fourteenth United States Infantry was the first to scale the 
wall of the Tartar city. 

August 15th. The American troops attacked and carried in succession 
all the gates leading to the Forbidden City from the Chien Gate, and 
estabHshed guards to hold them. Capt. H. J. Reilly, Fifth Artiller}', killed. 

August 16th. The city of Peking was divided for police and admin- 
istrative purposes into four sections under the American, British, Jap- 
anese and Russian commanders, and the permanent camp of the American 
troops was established in the Temple of Agriculture. 

August 19th. Expeditionary forces, of which 400 were Americans (Sixth 
Cavalry) under command of Lieut. -Col. T. J. Wint, Sixth Cavalry, de- 
feated several thousand Boxers six miles southwest of Tien-Tsin. 

During August and September, 1900, the American troops sent out minor 
expeditions in the vicinity of Peking. They retained administrative con- 
trol of nearly one-fourth of Peking till May, 1901, by which time all 
American troops, except one company, as legation guard, had left China. 

The relief of the foreign legations in Peking, for which the China 
Relief Expedition was organized, having been accomplished, a formal final 
review of the American troops in Peking was held on October 1st by 
Major-.General Chaffee, in honor of the Honorable E. H. Conger, Min- 
ister of the United States of America ; and, to perpetuate the memories of 
the compaign, the officers of the expedition organized The Military Order 
of the Dragon.

REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT, CHINA BATTLE- 
FIELD COMMISSION, TO THE PRESIDENT, MILI- 
TARY ORDER OF THE DRAGON, ON THE DEDI- 
CATION OF THE BRONZE MEMORIAL TABLETS. 

Spiegal Grove, Freemont, Ohio, 

April 1, 1908. 
General : 

I have the honor to report the formal dedication of the bronze 
tablets authorized by the Congress of the United States and erec- 
ted under the auspices of the China Battlefield Commission, of the 
Military Order of the Dragon, ''to commemorate the service of 
the soldiers, sailors and marines of the China relief expedition of 
1900, who rescued their countrymen in the beleaguered legation 
in the Tartar city of Peking." 

The plans of the commission, approved by yourself as president 
of the society, called for the erection of six bronze tablets in 
Peking and one in Tien-Tsin. The tablets for Peking consisted 
of an historical tablet, memorial tablets to the killed and died, 
and roster tablets containing the names of organizations of the 
Army and Marine Corps and of the ships of the co-operating 
naval forces, together with the names of all officers participating 
in the expedition. 

The tablet for Tien-Tsin contained the names of the Officers 
and men of the United States Army and ^Marine Corps, who 
were killed or wounded in action at Tien-Tsin, China, July 13, 
1900. 

Through the courtesy of Brigadier-General \\'. M. Crozier, 
Chief of Ordnance, and Brigadier-General C. F. Humphrey, 
Quartermaster-General, the commission was enabled to practical- 
ly terminate its labor with the placing in the hands of the Chief 
of Ordnance, of the plans and dimensions of the proposed bronze 
tablets, together with inscriptions and list of names which were 
authorized by yourself and the Secretary of War, to be placed 
on the bronze tablets. The bronze castings were made at the 
Rock Island Arsenal, and t(\gether with lugs and bolts neces- 
sarv for securinsr them in either brick or stone walls as mi"-ht 
later be desired, were forwarded by the Quartermaster-General's 
Department, direct to Peking, China, and delivered under plans 
and instructions for their erection at Peking and Tien-Tsin, re- 
spectively, to the Quartermaster in charge of the Legation Guard 
at the American Legation. 

lUI 



Through the personal interest and courtesy of Colonel Blunt, 
the Commandant of the Rock Island Arsenal, the seven tablets for 
China were all shipped nearly two years ago. But in the mean- 
time, the company of the 9th United States Infantry, which com- 
posed the Legation Guard, had been succeeded by a company of 
United States ^Marines, under the command of Captain W. H. 
Clifford, U. S. M. C, who was himself a member of the society, 
but had not been informed of the plans of the commission which 
contemplated simply the fastening of the tablets to the Legation 
Guard Compound, at practically no expense. 

Captain Chfford, upon being advised of the shipment of the 
tablets, and wishing to expedite the erection of them at once 
wrote to the Navy- Department, through the Commandant of the 
Marine Corps, asking instructions and suggesting that the tab- 
lets be placed on either side of the Sallyport of the Legation 
Guard Compound. Captain Clifford's suggestion was at once 
approved by the commission, and he was so advised, with the 
additional information that the tablets would come direct and 
with all the spare parts necessary for securely fastening them 
to the walls, and that, as the entire expense would probably not 
exceed one dollar, it was hoped that there would be no delay in 
the erection of the tablets. 

Unfortunately the question of the estimated expense had al- 
ready been submitted to the Comptroller of the Treasury, with the 
result that for over fifteen months, the question of the proper fund 
to which the one dollar of estimated expense should be charged, 
was a matter of ofificial correspondence between the Departments 
of State, Treasury, War and Navy, while the tablets remained 
unboxed in the store houses in Peking awaiting a decision. 

After the consultation with you at Los Angeles, I decided to 
visit Peking to erect the tablets, stopping en route in the Philip- 
pine Islands, to invite a representation of the officers of the Army, 
Navy and Marine Corps, members of the society, to participate 
in the formal dedicatory exercises and unveiling of the tablets 
at Peking and Tien-Tsin respectively. 

The Commanding Of^cer of the Third Squadron of the Pacific 
Fleet, kindly tendered the use of one of the small gunboats to 
the commission to ascend the Yang-tse-Kiang River from Shang- 
hai to Hang Kow, but at the last moment, no members of the 
Order were able to visit Peking, and I proceeded to Shanghai 
alone, where the U. S. S. Villalobos, Lieutenant Adolphus An- 

102 



drews commanding, was ordered to convey me to Hang Kow, 
China, from which place Peking was reached by rail. 

It was a source of disappointment that members of the Order 
were obliged to abandon their intentions to be present at the dedi- 
cation for which arrangements had been made by Captain James 
H. Reeves, 14th Cavalry, the Military Attache in the American 
Legation at Peking, and a member of the Order. 

On my arrival at Peking Captain L. M. Gulick, U. S. ]\I. C, 
commanding the Legation Gnard, and 1st Lieutenant P. H. 
Brown, his efficient Quartermaster, at once perfected the arrange- 
ments for the erection and unveiling of the tablets "without ex- 
pense to the L^nited States," at a total expenditure of $1.00 ]^Iex. 

On February 13, 1908, the fine guard of Marines, composing 
the Legation Guard, was paraded in the presence of Captain 
Reeves, the [Military Attache, and Surgeon E. C. Riggs, C. S. X., 
and members and student officers of the American Legation. The 
tablets were unveiled bv mvself as President of the commission, 
and turned over to ]\Ir. Henry P. Fletcher, the first secretary 
and Acting Charge of the American Legation, who placed them 
in charge of Captain Gulick, as Commanding Officer of the 
American Legation Guard. 

On the following day I proceeded to Tien-Tsin. and after care- 
fully looking over the ground, under all the circumstances con- 
cluded that no more appropriate place could be found for the 
erection of the commemorative tablets to the officers and men of 
the 9th Infantry and L^nited States ^Marines who participated in 
the battle of Tien-Tsin on July 13, 1900, than on the wall of the 
office of the American Consulate General, and adjoining the resi- 
dence in which the Consul General, ]\Ir. J. W. Ragsdale, and his 
most patriotic wife, Mrs. Ragsdale, had shown such, great kind- 
ness, not only to the wounded sailors and marines under Captain 
McCalla in the naval expedition toward Peking, but where also 
so many of the wounded of the battle of July 13th had been so 
tenderly cared for by both Mr. and Mrs. Ragsdale. 

The foreign residents in the P)ritish Concession in Tien-Tsin 
had already placed a beautiful bronze tablet to the American dead, 
in Gordon Hall in the British Concession. 

I cannot close this report without calling attention to one of the 
handsomest acts of courtesy between comrades in arms, although 
soldiers of different countries, that has ever come to my attention, 
in connection with the Liscum monument erected on the batile- 



103 



field in Tien-Tsin. Immediately after the death of Colonel Emer- 
son H. Liscum, the commanding officer of the 9th Infantry in 
the Battle of Tien-Tsin, and the officer highest in rank killed 
during the China Relief Expedition, the members of the 9th In- 
fantry subscribed for the erection of a simple shaft to mark the 
place where Colonel Liscum fell. 

In a former communication addressed to you, after a visit to 
the battlefield of Tien-Tsin, during the Russo-Japanese War in 
1904, 1 called attention to the Liscum monument in a paragraph 
as follows : 

''In Tien-Tsin the battlefield occupied by the 9th Infantry 
and American Marines is now a concession granted to the 
Japanese Government by China, and the one-time swamp or 
lagoon in which our soldiers fought and fell has been filled 
up and laid out like the streets of a modern city. Within 
perhaps two hundred yards of the place marked by the 
officers of the Ninth Infantry as the spot where Liscum fell 
is a beautiful cavalry memorial, erected by the Japanese at 
considerable cost, in a cavalry barracks, to mark the site oc- 
cupied by their troops. Within a very short time, owing 
to the growth of the Japanese settlement in Tien-Tsin, the 
spot marked by the Ninth Infantry will be built over by the 
rapidly growing houses of the Japanese concession. 

"When in Tien-Tsin I visited the Japanese Consul, and 
have every reason to believe that the Japanese authorities 
will gladly allow the erection of a simple marker in an oval 
made at the intersection of two of their streets, so that the 
Liscum marker could be preserved and be accessible to the 
many Americans visiting Tien-Tsin." 

You can imagine my surprise and pleasure on visiting the battle- 
field with the Japanese Consul, to find that the Japanese Govern- 
ment had changed its plans relating to the concession, in such a 
manner as to locate a Japanese Park, which was to include the 
Japanese consular offices and a beautiful Japanese monument to 
their soldier dead, to a location near the site of the Liscum monu- 
ment and in such a manner as to make a park of two full squares 
around the simple American monument. Since my visit, the 
ground had been leveled off, a substantial fence erected around 
the entire park, and, while retaining the center of it for the pro- 
posed Japanese monument, yet the American monument to 
Colonel Liscum occupied almost an equally prominent place in 
the park. I do not know whether it was the original intention of 



104 



Japan to lay out and beautify a park, but had they not done so, 
and had they not selected a site which included the Liscum mon- 
ument, then the Liscum monument would have been entirely ob- 
literated from view and in the rear of the houses of a Japanese 
real estate allotment. 

The Japanese Minister at Peking expressed his great interest 
in the American monument at Tien-Tsin, and invited me to ac- 
company him from Peking to Tien-Tsin. where he instructed the 
Japanese Consul to afford me every facility and to expedite the 
completion of the Japanese Park as rapidly as possible. 

\'ery respectfully, 

(Sgd.) Webb C. Hayes, 
President^ CJiina Battlefield Association.
